Lauren and I went forward with this project sort of haphazardly. We decided to get right down to it and take the pictures first, without getting to know each other first like the other groups did. However, through taking the pictures we learned things about one another. For example, Lauren is an Environmental Science major, so she took a picture hugging a tree as an ode to her personal connection with nature. I, on the other hand, love food and wanted to take a picture in front of a vending machine… which doesn’t say very much about me. But it began a discussion about how I had done a similar activity in my other FAMS class earlier that day. This led to a conversation about majors, and classes we were taking this semester, which helped us get to know one another. We may have done with project in a different way, but we achieved the same goal as the other groups.
